Derrick Rose Blooms with New Flower Shop Venture
In a bold move, former NBA star Derrick Rose has traded in his basketball shoes for a bouquet of fresh roses. The Chicago native has launched Rose's Flower Shop, a family-owned and operated business that's all about spreading love and connection through the simple act of giving flowers.A Passion Project Born from Love
Rose's journey into the world of floristry began on September 26th, 2024, when he sent roses to his loved ones as a way to express gratitude for their support during his NBA career. This heartfelt gesture sparked an idea that would eventually become Rose's Flower Shop. 'Roses have always meant more to me than something simply beautiful,' Rose shared in a statement. 'Not just because it's my last name, but because to me, they represent love and appreciation.'
A Family Affair with a Mission
Rose's Flower Shop is not just a business – it's a reflection of his values and commitment to community. The brand's website describes itself as 'a flower company built with heart, shaped by family and inspired by the belief that beauty means more when shared.' With its roots in Chicago, Rose's Flower Shop aims to bring people together through the universal language of flowers.
Weekly Drops and Exclusive Experiences
Rose's Flower Shop offers weekly drops of fresh roses, which can be ordered online and delivered to all 48 contiguous U.S. states. The brand also hosts in-person experiences throughout Chicago, including a special event on January 24th to honor Rose's jersey retirement ceremony. For the first 300 local customers who ordered the shop's pickup-only 'exclusive Chicago drop' on January 18th, they'll have the chance to meet Rose himself.
Derrick Rose's new venture is more than just a business – it's a testament to the power of love and connection. By sharing his passion for flowers with the world, Rose is spreading joy and creating community one bouquet at a time. As he once said, 'A simple gesture, like giving flowers, goes a long way in creating community, strengthening bonds, and spreading love.' With Rose's Flower Shop, it's clear that this former NBA star has found his true calling – and we can't wait to see what blooms next.
